10. Dance Is Life. Betting, Not So Much

I wasn't quite sure what the hell was wrong with me but I needed to get away from everything. It was starting to become too overwhelming. From me and Lorenzo, to Anthony's daughter and how he owes his life to a gang/mafia, to the those damned sexy Italian twins, and even to Pauliano and his stupid wedding that was just a week or 2 away.

It was as if someone had taken a whale it put in on my chest. I couldn't breathe, and I definitely couldn't sleep.

I wandered the halls of this huge mansion and found myself in a dance studio and I've never been happier. Fortunately for me, I had remembered how I'd gotten here and made my back to my room.

After changing into tights, a pink crop top, leg warmers, and grabbing my ballet shoes and phone, I made my way back into the hallway.

Okay, I need to make sure I'm very quite when sneaking past Lorenzo's room. I almost tripped earlier and I didn't want him coming out here and minding my business or better yet, trying to seduce me. I wouldn't be able to stop myself if he seduced me into his room.

After getting by like a smooth criminal, I stopped by the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water and a granola bar.

Once I made it back to the dance studio, I did some stretches and twirls with the ballet shoes. "Still got it." I said smiling to myself in the mirror.

I plugged my phone into the stereo and looked through countless songs before I found something worth dancing to.

As a warm up I first danced to Sia's Death By Chocolate, and I'm not gonna lie but, it kinda took a lot out of me. By the end of that, I was lain on the floor in the center of the room catching my breath when my ears perked to the sound of one of my favorite songs.

Rihanna's Close To You blasted through the speakers causing me to smile. I closed my eyes and let the music flow through me.

As I heard the piano instrumental began that was my cue to start. I slowly but graciously arched my back off the floor and stood tall, thanks to the ballet shoes of course.

Nothing but a tear, that's all for breakfast
Watching you pretend you're unaffected
You're pulling our connections, expecting me to let you go
But I won't

My feet were pointed and my arms were above me elegantly in high fifth position. I then went back down and stepped with my right foot and stood again with my right arm in high fifth while the other lain perfectly in second position. I smiled as I moved smoothly and landed three and a half pirouettes.

No you don't need my protection
But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking

Quickly, I did a leap turn with my right leg while ending with my arms in high fifth and second again.

I still got it.

I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes
Somewhere close to you

I then fell to the ground and pushed myself over backwards. It's like a tumbleweed but more graceful.

Close to you
Like so close if they heard you, you wouldn't find out
Just say now, I'm coming right now, to be close to you

Standing up again, I continued to dance gracefully while the rest of the beautiful song played.

Said you let it go, you kept it
Working hard to perfect it
Now your fear is reckless, and it's out of your control
Would you let it go?
